Hi, I have been enjoying my mac for a couple of weeks now. it sure does have a nice feel to it. I have learned to love the expose and hot corners etc. (although I still miss the explore window.Does mac think we are too stupid to handle seeing the contents of our system all at once?)
Any way, In an earlier question I posed, "Ora" thoughtfully responded with this instruction:
Macs work very differently in this regard to PCs. In general people use expose to see what is happening in all their windows, or apple-tab between applications. Activate expose with F9 (all windows) of F10 (all windows for one app), though personally i like to bind these to the extra buttons on my mouse.
I am now advanced enough I think I can handle trying to fgure out how to bind these functions to my mouse. however, I have an ibook g4 12". In my system prefs. I don't seem to have the option to afffect mouse controls because it only allows for changes to the trackpad. is it possible?
also, on my old pc I had fixed some of the keys to perform certain functions such as automatically open my firefox with one button etc. is that possible on the mac. I figure it is probably impossibe because of the limited number of keys on a laptop.
oh and one other unrelated question please, is it possible to save any project i make in idvd that is readable on a pc? i would love to share a project i have made with a friend or send it to my pc to burn it to disk however it uses that rediculous file extention.
Does mac try to be incompatible just for the sake of sticking it to the man?
